Quick answer

An egg yolk allergy test is a blood test that detects immunoglobulin E antibodies against proteins in egg yolk, such as alpha-livetin. It is often ordered alongside egg white testing when someone reacts to eggs and a provider wants to identify which part of the egg may be involved. Results are interpreted by a qualified healthcare provider.

What this test measures

Egg yolk contains a different set of proteins than egg white, and allergy to yolk alone is less common. One recognized yolk allergen, alpha-livetin (Gal d 5), is associated with bird-egg syndrome, in which people sensitized to bird feathers or droppings may experience symptoms after eating egg yolk. Reactions can include skin, respiratory, or digestive symptoms.

The assay measures specific IgE antibodies in a serum sample collected from a vein and typically reports a quantitative level with a graded class. Because yolk and white proteins differ, the test is frequently ordered together with egg white and component tests so that a provider can compare patterns across the whole egg.

People may order this test after reacting to eggs or when a provider suspects that yolk rather than white is relevant. It can also be included when bird-related allergy is being evaluated. A qualified healthcare provider should interpret results with your symptom history, since sensitization alone does not confirm a clinical allergy.
